"Whatever Xuan'er says is what it is. You are right." Prince Wei looked at Xiaocao, who was not only pitiful but also cowardly.
Xiao Cao smiled and nodded, and even reached out to touch the Wei Shizi's noble head, "Well, good boy."
Wei Tingyu looked at her quietly, then began to smile, his lips slightly raised and his eyes full of tenderness. Then he held Xiaocao's hand, put it to his lips, and gently kissed her fingertips.
Xiaocao was stunned and didn't know how to react for a moment.
"Xuan'er is going to settle accounts with me in the future, so can you give me a hug now?"
Xiaocao leaned into Wei Tingyu's arms without hesitation. The two hugged each other quietly and no one spoke.
Some things don't need to be expressed out loud, they are all very clear in your heart.
After returning to the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion, Xiaocao treated Wei Tingyu as usual. This time, he did not nag at him as he did in the past. He just looked at him quietly for a moment and then said goodbye.
Wei Tingyu did not try to persuade her to stay, and asked Huayu to take her back. Before, every time Xiaocao came, the atmosphere in the courtyard could be said to be relatively relaxed. But today, there was no conflict between the two masters, and the divine doctor Lin was also found. Why did it feel a bit depressed? Because even Huayu seemed very well-behaved.
In the carriage that was sending Xiaocao back to the Wenren family, Huayu looked at Xiaocao and spoke cautiously, "Um, husband... Fourth Miss, between you and the master, is it..."
"What?" Xiaocao was puzzled. She didn't feel anything wrong, so naturally she felt that the language of the flowers at this time was a little wrong.
"Nothing." Huayu chose to keep silent.
Xiaocao nodded slightly, did not ask any further questions, and withdrew his gaze, seeming to be distracted.
Huayu still sent Xiaocao to the door of Wenren's house, and after watching her enter the gate, she turned and left.
Hua Yu usually doesn't like to use her brain, but that doesn't mean she doesn't have one. The main reason is that their prince is too powerful, and they usually just need to follow orders. Now that no one is there to answer her questions, she just starts to think on her own.
—The Crown Prince will not do anything to make the Fourth Lady angry now, and the Fourth Lady will not settle accounts with the Crown Prince now, so the only problem is probably still the Crown Prince’s health. Could it be that the situation has gotten worse
Thinking of this possibility, Hua Yu couldn't help but frown. Is there really no hope
Xiaocao put the books she brought back from the Imperial Hospital in Wenren's carriage and brought them back. When she returned to her own yard, all the books had been neatly placed on the desk. Xiaocao asked someone to call Wenren Yang over.
Wenren Xiaosi was quite skilled at helping his fourth sister with her studies and had no resistance at all, so he got through it quickly. Although he basically just read from the book from beginning to end, Wenren Xiaosi had learned a lot of medical knowledge. Even though it was only theoretical, it was not impossible for him to study further if he wanted to. After all, he had a good memory and was good at learning by analogy.
Xiaocao was reading a book while listening to her younger brother reading. She was doing two things at the same time. She only slowed down her reading speed when there were certain things that needed a little consideration.
There are not many books left in the Imperial Medical Bureau - of course, compared with the original total amount - Xiaocao is well aware of the relevant categories and decides not to go to the Imperial Medical Bureau from today on. He asks the maid to send back the books he has read and then take back some of them according to his instructions.
Wenren Yang is getting married on August 16th. Although his marriage and Wenren Xiang's marriage are both major marriage events, the degree of importance they receive is vastly different. At least Wenren Yang's wedding is being prepared now.
As a groom, he has a lot to do, but not too little either. However, when he meets Xiaocao, his elder sister, she seems to have forgotten about his marriage and keeps him by her side to "do hard labor". Wen Renyang is just like a giant baby, so don't expect him to be of any help. Han is also aware of this, so she makes all the decisions on her own. Letting him stay with his fourth sister is considered "utilization of waste". When others are busy, he is like an outsider, having nothing to do with it.
Xiaocao was immersed in the book and didn't pay much attention to other things until Han came to tell her that Wenren Yang was needed to go to the Meng family to propose marriage. Then she came to her senses and felt a little sorry. Not only did she not help, but she also deducted the money from the groom.
"There are so many people in the mansion, Xuan'er, you just need to take care of your own thing. As for your brother, apart from what he has to do, what else can you expect from him? So Xuan'er, you don't have to feel sorry and don't think too much about anything else." It would be best if Wei Tingyu could be cured.
Xiaocao unconsciously reached out and hugged Han, "Mom, thank you." With family members like them indulging her and pampering her, she could live such a casual and even willful life without any complaints.
Han smiled and stroked Xiaocao's hair, "Silly girl, why thank me? We are a family."
It’s such a simple sentence, but how many people would really protect each other without regrets because of this
There was clearly a lot of affection between the mother and daughter, but Wenren Xiaosi seemed to feel nothing.
When the mother and daughter turned around to look at him, they could only look at each other in silence. Alas, what can you do with him? At least now he can be controlled. Wen Renyang will not be like before, not caring about his body.
According to Han's wealth, the betrothal gift prepared for the Meng family would definitely not be bad. Of course, the old man of the Meng family was a great scholar of the time and a very noble person, so the betrothal gift prepared could not be like that of a "nouveau riche" but had to be "noble".
Therefore, in addition to the necessary items in the betrothal gift, Han also prepared ancient books, calligraphy and paintings, etc.
Most of them were given to Meng Xinlan, all of which were good things, showing the importance attached to the girl from the Meng family. These things, in addition to being in line with personal preferences, of course, the more expensive the better.
The Meng family is truly noble. Old Master Meng is the president of a college, and although his son is an official, he is only a minor one. It's just that Old Master Meng regards money as dirt, but that doesn't mean the same for his descendants. So, if they say they didn't feel the slightest bit of emotion when they saw the Wen family's betrothal gift, that would definitely be a lie. Or, the jealousy in some people's hearts might have almost swallowed them up.
Some relatives of the Meng family were naturally there too. There were quite a few people surrounding Meng Xinlan alone. How many people were envious and jealous of her for being able to marry Wen Renyang? Some even regarded her as a thorn in the eyes of Shi Wei. In the past, Meng Xinlan might have taken the initiative to avoid him, but today was different. There was an irrepressible joy in her eyes. No matter whether others were sincere or insincere, as long as they said blessings, she would accept them all.
The male hosts and male guests of the Meng family wanted to "talk" to Wen Ren Yang, but unfortunately, Wen Ren Yang was pulled away by Grandpa Meng almost at the first moment, and they did not dare to snatch him from Grandpa Meng.
Throughout the entire process, Wen Renyang was just going through the motions, and in fact, he did so, completely avoiding situations that he was not good at dealing with.
It can be said that Wen Renyang was really lucky in his life over the past decade. He basically only needed to focus on the things he liked. He never had to worry about anything else, as there was always someone to take care of everything for him.
Wen Renyang just walked around the Meng family, gave out the betrothal gifts, and won the hearts of many girls. Then he returned home without knowing anything, as if he was just going out to visit someone. There were still a few days before the wedding, so he went to Xiaocao to report in very obediently. In comparison, his sister's matter seemed to be the most important.
Xiaocao was a little helpless. To be honest, with someone like Wenren Xiaosi, she would have been destined to be alone in her previous life. She was about to get married, but she still didn't seem to be smart at all. It even made people suspect that she might never be smart in her entire life.
Fortunately, nowadays, marriages are all arranged by parents and matchmakers. Many couples have never met each other before marriage. Only some of them can develop feelings after marriage. It is good enough if they can live with mutual respect.
Wen Renyang is a nerd. Even if he is really stupid, as long as he can take care of Meng Xinlan and live a peaceful life without any messy people around her, I believe Meng Xinlan will be willing to take care of him for the rest of her life. In this way, she will be the envy of others.
From the beginning, Xiaocao knew what kind of life Wenren Yang was suitable for, but at that time they were not so familiar and close, so it was difficult for her to say anything. Now, Xiaocao stroked her chin and felt that she could "teach" this twin brother appropriately. Her mother was not the kind of person who would put someone in her son's room, so as long as Wenren Yang himself was fine, there would be basically no problem.
Xiaocao took the book from Wenren Yang's hand.
Wen Renyang looked up at her, his eyes clear and penetrating, full of pure doubt.
Inadvertently, Xiaocao's cute spot was touched again. How could she be so cute? To be honest, just like that, she wanted to get married and have children. Xiaocao even felt that it was destroying the seedlings. However, she had no right to express her opinion on this matter.
Then, Xiaocao suddenly realized a problem, does Xiaosi know how to have a bridal chamber
Normally, at this age, a boy would have had a maidservant around him, but Wenren Xiaosi didn't have one. Xiaocao suddenly thought that she might have overthought this. Her mother should have considered this issue as well. Maybe she would arrange someone to guide his growth, or give him some books like fire avoidance maps. As for the former, Xiaocao would instinctively feel a little disgusted. As for the latter, to be honest, Xiaocao didn't hold out much hope. She just knew the general idea. In all likelihood, the bridal chamber would be very tragic, which would leave a psychological trauma.
Xiaocao stared at Wenren Xiaosi, thinking that perhaps she should teach him a good lesson.
Alas, it’s a pity that she is the elder sister. If she was the elder brother, he could just teach her verbally, but now, he needs to be more subtle.
Wenren Xiaosi was inexplicably a little uneasy when being stared at by his sister, "Fourth sister, what's the matter?"
Xiaocao put away the evil thoughts in his mind, coughed lightly, straightened his face, and then began to teach his younger brother "the way of being a husband."
Wenren Xiaosi also knew that Xiaocao was doing this for his own good, so he perked up and listened carefully. As he listened, he nodded in agreement. Xiaocao's "heresies" seemed to be the truth to him.
It is actually quite easy to stop Wenren Xiaosi from having some distracting thoughts. “Too many women will affect his reading” is enough.
In the end, "You have read the gynecological manual, and you know that it is not easy to be a woman, so cherish her more and be more considerate, especially your wife. Generally speaking, she will be the one who accompanies you the longest, so don't let her down."
Wenren Xiaosi nodded, "I know." Looking at Xiaocao, he spoke with great care, "Respect and love each other, trust and encourage each other, understand and accommodate each other, support each other, and love each other for a lifetime. No matter good times or bad, no matter rich or poor, no matter healthy or sick, no matter happy or sad, I will stand by her through thick and thin, share weal and woe, and never leave her. For a lifetime, we will be together until we grow old together, and there will be no two colors. What Fourth Sister expects, I can do too."
Xiao Cao reached out and touched Wen Renyang's head, "Sister believes it."
As for the oath that he had asked Jianshu to swear, if Wenren Yang hadn't mentioned it now, Xiaocao would have almost forgotten it. After all, even in the previous life, there were very few men who could do that, let alone now. At that time, he was just saying it to Jianshu, but he didn't expect that his younger brother would remember it so clearly. However, this is indeed a pleasing thing.
Xiaocao did have some "conscience" after all, and did not detain Wenren Yang as a laborer for the next few days. Instead, he was sent back. Even though he was actually quite willing to stay, Xiaocao still drove him away because he had to prepare "teaching materials" for him.
For the sake of her brother's happy and beautiful life, Xiaocao took great pains and even put the medical books aside temporarily.
Although Xiaocao's painting skills are not top-notch, if it is just realistic and does not pay attention to artistic conception, it is still good. This textbook does not need any artistic conception. Realism and a certain aesthetic feeling are enough. Even if she has only "seen" "pigs running" and has never tasted it, her theory is still good, plus her understanding of the human body, this "textbook" will definitely not be a problem.
Xiao Cao also added text next to the painting. Although it was not particularly detailed, it was definitely understandable at a glance. He even thought about replacing the faces in the fire avoidance picture with his and Meng Xinlan's, in order to make Wen Renyang more immersive. But then he thought about it and decided not to do it. If he went too far, it would be bad, so he just blurred the faces.
After the "teaching materials" were ready, Xiao Cao called Wenren Xiaosi over and gave him the materials. "When you go back, read them by yourself. Don't let anyone else know. Remember to read them carefully. When you're done, burn them."
Although Wenren Xiaosi was a little curious, he was a good and obedient child.
Wen Renyang reads a lot of books, and he has occasionally come across books on this subject. However, because he has no interest in them, he basically just glanced at them and threw them aside. This time, when he opened it, his face suddenly became red.
